Strictly Come Dancing star Ashley Roberts has broken her silence on her new romance with pro dancer Giovanni Pernice, after weeks of speculation.
The pair kept quiet about their relationship as rumours began to swirl, but Ashley has finally acknowledged that they are together in an interview with the Daily Mail.

“Yes, we are seeing each other,” the Pussycat Dolls singer said.
“And now the show is done we can spend a bit more time together. We’re getting to know each other, and it’s nice.”
But while she’s finally admitted the relationship exists, she wouldn’t go into any details, claiming that it’s “early days”.
Ashely and Giovanni were fianlists on last year’s season of the hit dance show – but not with each other.
Giovanni was partnered with Steps singer Faye Tozer, while Ashley danced with Pasha Kovalev.
Reports had claimed that the pair kicked things off at the end-of-show party, after getting along so well during the season.
They’ve since been pictured out and about in the US, after Giovanni flew to Miami to spend Christmas and New Year with the singer.
The pair were even spotted kissing on a night out at a salsa club.

Earlier this week, Giovanni appeared to confirm their romance during an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine.
During the chat, host Lorraine Kelly asked him about Ashley, and he replied: “We have yes [been on holiday]. We spent time together yes.”
He added that it was “early days” and as Lorraine wished him good luck with his newfound romance, Giovanni replied: “Thank you, thank you.”
